Best news I've heard in a long time. I sold my 05 GT 2 weeks ago and have been driving a 4 door Cobalt rental paid by the dealer in the meanwhile !

Great news! Hopefully we'll start seeing some 5.0s hitting the streets this weekend.

I wonder if the dates Ford's 800 number give you are accurate yet? It was updated 4/24

4/29 seems awful soon since they just started shipping, but I am only a 180 miles away from AAI.

Dealer told me 4/30 a few weeks ago. I'm expecting that date to be bumped back a bit.

Mine was built on 4/12. Hopefully it's not buried and it can be shipped out shortly.

I'm disappointed.

With all the news of the cars shipping what are the masses going to b*tch and whine about? And what will Stinger and Evo have to tell us that we don't already know?

I see sad times ahead.



Except, of course, after my car is delivered.

Or we can theorize on what the hold up was.

My theory are the gears. I have heard that Ford had someone making their gears that were outsourcing cheap parts out of china. Well they were not happy as there was a large batch of gears screwed up. So now Ford is back to doing it themselves. I say so many 3:75 were ordered that Ford had a back order, and also needed to remove the "bad" gears in place.

Just saying....

Rumors...

Ford doesn't make any gears, always were outsourced.

And nobody has ordered any 3.75 gears.
